As a hands-on Systems Architect for robotic vision systems you will be responsible for the h/w and low-level s/w architecture to implement Dexterity’s vision systems. You will work with talented, cross functional teams to implement these systems and deliver on a roadmap for features, performance and cost. You will define major system and software interfaces, requirements and acceptance criteria for sub-systems. This role requires broad knowledge of camera systems (particularly RGBD), distributed s/w systems, CPU/GPU compute budgets, real time control, network communications, electronics, sensors and actuators. The ideal candidate will have developed and taken to volume production a complex vision/perception system operating in a dynamic environment. The ideal candidate will have broad knowledge and hands on skills across hardware and software domains.

We are very interested in candidates that have previously worked at a startup or other fast-paced environment on technically challenging projects. Other duties involve analyzing requirements, reviewing code/designs, mentoring other developers and communicating best practices via documents. The role also empowers you to evaluate new technologies and recommend new tools/components to improve our solutions.

In order to thrive in this role you will have significant experience with developing, debugging and improving production systems. Strong communication and problem-solving skills are essential to the role.
